Great Song Pirate

Chapter 608 The army presses the city
During the two battles of the Fubo Army, a large number of Leigong Cannons were basically not put into use. They just used a small amount of artillery to fire some solid bullets from a long distance to bombard the Jinbing, and gave some support to the front-line defense. It was not as lethal as the bow and crossbow, so the golden soldiers began to relax about this weapon that they had never seen before. They felt that it was only mediocre, and it was not as shocking as when a large number of thunderbolt chariots were launched, but the sound was a bit louder, and they got used to it. I am not so afraid anymore.

Seeing that the first ditch was about to be filled by the Jin soldiers, and that the only way to continue fighting was to rely on men, Yang Zaixing ordered the soldiers on the first line of defense to give up immediately and retreat to the back of the second ditch. By this time it was already dark.

The Jin soldiers, who had been tired for more than two days, were completely at the end of their strength. They were no longer able to take advantage of the night to launch a new offensive. They could only send troops to guard the first trench and bury the pot to make food on the spot. Wanyan Zongwang counted the losses of the day In half a day, his army suffered thousands of casualties. Calculated in this way, in two days, they didn't even touch the edge of Fuzhou City, so they lost tens of thousands of people. Yu Bingma, Wanyan Zongqiang has completely tasted the hardships of the Fubo Army. Looking at Fuzhou City shrouded in the night, it is like a monster entrenched in front of his eyes. Knowing that this battle is not easy to fight, he thought about it for a while After that, he immediately sent people back to Liaoyang Mansion and ordered the guards there to continue to deploy troops to come to support him. He made up his mind to take Fuzhou City even if it was filled with dead bodies.

After nightfall, just as the exhausted golden soldiers fell asleep, there was movement again in Fuzhou City. Under the cover of night, hundreds of people left the camp, crossed the second line of defense, crawled forward, and headed towards the garrison. The golden soldiers on the first line of defense touched them, and when they were very close to the golden soldiers who were watching the night, they suddenly jumped up. After entering the golden soldiers, they hacked wantonly, and the exhausted golden soldiers were suddenly hit by this blow, and hurriedly stood up to fight, but that night there was no moon in the sky, the surroundings were very dark, and there were many figures everywhere. In the panic, the soldiers couldn't distinguish between the enemy and us, let alone how many enemy troops were coming. In order to save their lives, they had to wield their weapons and slashed at the people rushing towards them. They were killed by the golden soldiers stationed in the first ditch all night. It was only after dawn that they found out that they had fought an own battle. It was simply that they were fighting with their own people, and they added a group of unjust deaths here. man of.

Moreover, the Fubo army was still not satisfied, and continued to attack the Jinbing camp with rockets, and this time they learned to be more cunning. One came, and they fought more than a dozen in one night, but the golden soldiers were worried all night. The ghost didn't know when one of these things would fall, and they would be blown up to death. These golden soldiers and the generals almost They will all be driven crazy by the Fubo army.

Wanyan Zongqiang stared at Fuzhou City with his red eyes, and his lungs almost exploded. He had never seen such a style of play, and it made him unable to use all his strength. He was extremely useless. If he continued to let If the Fubo army continues to toss, then his army will collapse without a fight, and it will be crushed by the Fubo army. Either he retreats now, or he can only fight to the death and capture Fuzhou regardless of the consequences City, otherwise, Fubo Army will never let them sleep peacefully.

Wanyan Zongqiang finally chose to attack by force. If he retreated back, then he would not have to mess around in the Kingdom of Jin in the future. So when the sky just started to light up, he raised his tent with drums, summoned the generals in the army, and began to arrange for a force attack.

With their red rabbit eyes open, a large number of golden soldiers poured out of the camp in batches. Under the leadership of their respective leaders, they flocked to the defense line outside the city of Fubo Army like a tide, and a large number of siege equipment were also pulled out. The big battalion followed closely behind and moved towards Fuzhou City. The Jin soldiers were also annoyed by the Fubo army's style of fighting. They fought hard, so why didn't they let people sleep!Fighting, fighting for life is better than dying, so the ruthless Jin Bing, under the persecution of the warlord behind, began to launch the most ferocious attack since Jin Bing came.

Yang Zaixing stood at the top of the city and watched the formation of the golden soldiers with binoculars, then said to the generals beside him with a serious expression: "It seems that this Alu has been completely driven crazy by us, he is going to play with his life, Listen everyone, today will be the day of our decisive battle with the Jin army, success or failure depends on one move, please listen to my order, and you must not act without authorization, those who violate the order will do so according to the military law!"

The generals immediately nodded and agreed, and then dispersed, went down the city wall, arrived among their troops, and began to make preparations.

Wanyan Zongqiang launched a strong attack this time, which can be said to have mobilized all the forces he could use. The limited trench bridges and lead vehicles in the army were all put into the attack. A large number of golden soldiers braved the pressure of the Fubo army. Yashi, with a large shield on his back, pushed the heavy trench bridge and the lead car approached the Fubo army's defense line outside the city step by step. A large number of Jin soldiers shot at the Fubo army with bows and arrows. The two sides entered the battle immediately At the height of the heat, the arrows fired by the two sides were like dark clouds, so dense that they even collided in the air, and the thunderbolt chariots in the rear of the golden soldiers also approached the defense line of the Fubo army, and they used stones and fireballs to ambush them. Polish front.

Such a fierce attack made it difficult for the soldiers and horses of the Fubo Army stationed outside the city, and their casualties began to increase. So under Yang Zaixing's order, they once again gave up a line of defense and retreated to the last line of defense outside the city. The defenders fought against the Jin Bing's offensive together.

It didn't take half a day to take down a line of defense from the Fubo Army again, and the Jin soldiers immediately boosted their morale, and rushed towards the third line of defense of the Fubo Army without stopping. Their Thunderbolt cars, trench bridges, and leading vehicles could not cross the trench for a short time, so the lightly loaded Jin soldiers hit the iron plate fiercely, and were shot back by a rain of arrows. , leaving a field of corpses outside the third ditch.

Wanyan Zongqiang saw that the casualties were too heavy, so he had to temporarily withdraw his troops and retreat to the vicinity of the second ditch, ordering the army to fill in the road with all its strength, and transport these trench bridges, leading cars, and thunder cars to the other side of the ditch.

Seeing the golden soldiers busy outside the city moving those cumbersome guys, Yang Zaixing on the top of the city was a little funny. Although these things were considered by the golden soldiers to be absolute siege weapons, they were nothing in the eyes of the Fubo army. Not to mention, they now have a hundred ways to deal with these things, but they just don’t want to use them. Yang Zaixing has his own plan, and what he wants is to let the golden soldiers get closer to the city. So it’s been almost half a day since they fought. The thunderbolt cannons on the Fubo army's head did not fire a single shot, but used some temporary throwing carts left outside the city to throw stones and fireballs to fight back against the golden soldiers, killing two of the leading carts of the golden soldiers. Basically, the heavy equipment such as Jin Bing was not injured. Although some soldiers of the Fubo Army did not know what to do, the rules of the Fubo Army are that the military order is as high as a mountain, and they are not allowed to blame the coach Yang Zaixing. Waiting for things, fighting against the golden soldiers, looking forward to the thunder cannon on the top of the city and the high ground.

Although the head car covered with thick cowhide is effective against arrows, it is easy for the Fubo army to destroy them. Even with rockets, they can be destroyed, let alone the Fubo army using thunder. Cannonball, most people in the Fubo Army know this, but the Jin people don't have a little self-awareness, and feel that these guys are really powerful, pushing them across the second trench and screaming towards the outside of the Fubo Army city The third trench came rushing.

The Fubo Army's defensive strength in the third trench has greatly increased. Although there are no sharp guys such as Leigong Cannons here, they have used local materials and made a lot of throwing cars out. After the soldiers and horses retreated from the second line of defense were strengthened, the number reached more than 3000. The Fubo Army's salvo, all equipped with bows and crossbows, was quite terrifying, not to mention that they still had many three-arrow crossbows and one crossbow Three shots, greatly increasing their firepower.

Seeing that the Jin soldiers started to attack their third line of defense in the afternoon, a battalion commander named Lu Zhemin guarding here immediately commanded the Fubo army to launch a counterattack. Dozens of throwing carts were pulled by the Fubo soldiers He threw dozens of chubby clay bullets, and smashed them head-on into the dense formation of golden soldiers. Those in the middle were smashed to bloody flesh and died on the spot. Even if they missed, these clay bullets fell on the hard ground , and they all shattered immediately, and the hard clay fragments immediately flew in all directions, causing heavy casualties to the surrounding golden soldiers.

The two clay bombs landed on a lead car and a ditch bridge with good luck. Both the lead car and the ditch bridge were beaten and broken. The soldiers, whose skin was smashed by the mud bombs, and the scattered pieces beat the golden soldiers inside to the head, ran out of the lead car with their heads in their arms, and were immediately nailed to death by the rain of arrows covering them. Outside, the lucky ones had to hide behind the dilapidated head car.

Although the Jin soldiers also fired arrows and attacked fiercely, their Thunderbolt chariots hadn't caught up for a while. In addition, the Fubo army was protected by earth barriers. Casualties, hundreds of people fell in a pool of blood.

Under the leadership of Lu Zhemin, the Fubo army outside the city smashed the golden soldiers with throwing carts on the earth base non-stop, stone bombs, clay bombs, fireballs, kerosene bombs, they used everything they could use, Under their attack, the advancing Jinbing was driven back again. Because of the rockets and kerosene bombs, several leading vehicles were also lit into several piles of bonfires, and were thrown by the Jinbing in front of the two armies. It was burning fiercely, and two trench bridges were also broken up by the Fubo army, crawling in front of the formation of the two armies.

The battlefield is filled with smoky smoke and the pungent smell of blood, and the corpses of the golden soldiers are everywhere. The broken flags and flags are inserted in front of the two armies, which makes people look at it. bleak scene.

Wan Yan Zongqiang also became cruel, and immediately replaced a team that had not suffered any losses, and launched another attack on Lu Zhemin's line of defense. As a result, he was beaten back by Lu Zhemin's army again, paying a big price .

In this way, from noon to evening, the Jin soldiers launched a total of four fierce attacks. Although they approached the third ditch under the cover of the thunderbolt chariot, they also caused considerable losses to the Fubo army, but they still failed. Breaking through the third line of defense, seeing that it was getting late, Wan Yan Zongqiang had no choice but to order Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

Wanyan Zongqiang is generally quite satisfied with the battle situation of this day. After all, after a hard battle, although he paid a heavy price, he took down the large defensive positions of the Fubo Army outside the city. He controlled many nearby highlands, and felt that at least he didn't have to worry about being bombed into their camp by the flying things made by the Fubo army at night. In this way, Wanyan Zongqiang planned to let his subordinates sleep well After that, after waking up tomorrow, they will aggressively attack the defense line outside the city of Fubo Army, approach the city, and have a final duel with Fubo Army.

Zong Qiang's wishful thinking was good, but the Fubo army let him down again. As a result, after nightfall, and after most of their golden soldiers fell asleep, the rockets arrived again as promised, and landed one by one. Inside their big camp, Jin Bing discovered that there were still places outside their big camp that were not under control, allowing the Fubo Army to take advantage of the loophole again, and this night was spent again in the sound of rocket explosions by the Fubo Army , some gold soldiers began to adapt to this kind of explosion, they were too sleepy, laying in the tent with their heads in their arms, no matter how you blow it up, I just sleep, if you blow it up, you deserve it, if you don’t blow it up, it’s a big deal, wake up, turn over They continued to sleep, and even some guys were so tired that the rockets fell near them, but they didn't wake them up, which shows how hard Jinbing has been these days.

After this night of tossing, the Fubo army was quite lucky. They actually blew a lieutenant general of Zong Qiang who was lying in the tent regardless of his care, and was blown out of the tent. Yes, after Zong Qiang learned about it, he was even more furious. Lieutenant Yuan Yuan was his friend since he was a child. He was extremely brave and had countless military exploits, but he didn't die in front of the battle. Today, he was blown to death by the Fubo Army with such a despicable method. .

Wanyan Zongqiang, who was in a rage, launched another fierce attack on Fuzhou City at dawn. This time he vowed to win, and he also came up with a damaging move. The wind was northeast that day, and the Jin army was in the limelight, while Fu Bo The army was at a disadvantage, and someone gave Zong Qiang an idea. As a result, Jinbing got some ox carts, covered them with wet firewood, poured grease on them, and pushed them to the front of the two armies to form a horizontal line. Behind the bullock cart, push the cart towards the last line of defense of the Fubo army outside the city.

The Fubo army didn't understand what Jin Bing was doing at the beginning, and felt very strange. Jin Bing was made stupid, and he pushed the grain and grass cart to the front of the formation. Even Yang Zaixing didn't understand it for a while, but someone reminded him later. Turning his head to look at the direction of the battle flag fluttering on the city, he suddenly realized: "It's broken! The Jinren want to use smoke!"

As soon as the words fell, Jin Bing set the grass carts on fire. With the help of oil, the wet firewood on these carts was quickly ignited, but the fire did not burn too much. Smoke, after the thick smoke rose, the position of the Fubo Army was immediately blown by the wind, and the golden soldiers hid behind the car and pushed towards the trenches of the Fubo Army step by step.

From Lu Zhemin's position, looking towards the Jin Bing line, he could hardly see a single Jin Bing, but he could only see thick smoke billowing from the Jin Bing array, all covered by the smoke, and then the smoke was blown to the third barrier, The soldiers of the Fubo army were choked by the thick smoke and coughed loudly, their eyes were so smoked that they couldn't open their eyes, let alone watching the movements of the golden soldiers, let alone shooting the golden soldiers with bows and arrows, suddenly outside the city The Fubo army's position was in chaos, and they didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of them.

Although Lu Zhemin shouted loudly and commanded his subordinates to attack the golden soldiers with throwing stones, and let all the soldiers attack the golden soldiers with a diffuse method, but because they could not see the movement of the golden soldiers clearly, the attack effect was minimal, and they could not effectively block the golden soldiers at all. pace of.

The Golden Soldiers got excited this time and pushed the train forward with all their might, letting the lead car and trench bridge that had been rushing overnight followed closely behind, and soon approached the defense line of the Fubo Army, and the Golden Soldiers following behind pushed the Thunderbolt The car approached the Fubo Army's defense line, and with the thunderbolt car to supplement the attack, it launched violently towards the Fubo Army's position.

The third line of defense immediately became precarious. The soldiers of the Fubo army immediately suffered heavy losses under Jin Bing's attack. However, under the leadership of Lu Zhemin, they still fought back with stones, but they were obviously at a disadvantage.

Yang Zaixing stared at the battle situation outside the city with a solemn expression. Although he couldn't see it clearly in the thick smoke, he knew that the third line of defense was probably going to be over. He didn't expect Jin Bing to do such a trick. The law is not the Photovoltaic Wave Army Association, there are also capable people among the golden men!

"Twenty Leigong cannons loaded with solid bullets were deployed on the east wall to attack the Jin soldiers. Lu Zhemin was ordered to lead the army back into the city immediately, and not to stick there. Alu is crazy today, so let them come over!" Yang Zaixing looked at. Watching Lu Zhemin, who was fighting hard outside the city, saw from the smoke that the Jin soldiers had approached the third trench, and began to push the train away, knocking away the objects of Juma and Luzhai in front of the trench, and erected the trench bridge in the deep trench. above, and immediately ordered to.

Hearing the sound of gold ringing at the top of the city, Lu Zhemin had tears in his eyes, and the whites of his eyes were red from the smoke. While cursing the wickedness of the Jin soldiers, he immediately sent an order to withdraw the troops to Huizhou City, so the remaining soldiers immediately set fire to the top of the position. The brothers who threw their cars and ignited them, and at the same time carried the dead and wounded on their backs, abandoned this line of defense, and immediately retreated into Fuzhou City under the cover of artillery fire on the city, leaving the line of defense to the Jin Army.

After the golden soldiers were bombarded by the thunder guns, they lost some generals and finally crossed the trenches through the trench bridge and occupied the last line of defense outside the city of Fubo army, but they were immediately smoked by the thick smoke they made. With tears streaming down his face, he had to quickly order to put out the fire. After a lot of work, he finally extinguished the bullock carts on the outside of the trench. All of them have the same disgraced virtues.

But no one of the Jin soldiers cares about face issues anymore. Anyway, the trick they came up with today saved them a lot of losses and allowed them to successfully take down this line of defense in one fell swoop. Someone rewarded the bad person who came up with the idea. So far, they can finally get close to the city wall of Fuzhou City. There are only two wings left outside the city and the Fubo Army is stationed. With deep moats blocking, the Gao Jun and Xiao Jianfeng troops on the two wings are still not in any danger, and they are tightly protecting the two wings of Fuzhou City, so that the Jin soldiers cannot encircle Fuzhou City, but Wanyan Zongqiang has no interest in attacking Fubo on the two wings. Army, he has now put all his attention on Fuzhou City.

After some arrangement, Wanyan Zongqiang personally commanded all the troops to the city of Fuzhou. While filling up the ditch outside the city, he set up a battle formation far away, forming a thick formation in the dark. Raised the handsome flag, fluttering with the wind.

Looking from the city, the golden soldiers are lined up in an orderly manner, rattan players, pikemen, archers... layered on top of each other, it is almost impossible to see the edge at a glance, it makes one's scalp tingle, even Yang Zaixing has to admire : "Golden Soldiers are really tough soldiers who have been tempered through thousands of years of hard work, and Alu is also a man who knows how to fight. Although he has suffered setbacks, it is not easy to have such a lineup!"

This is also after the Fubo Army has experienced more than a hundred battles since it became an army. This is the first time they have faced the most powerful enemy. No one showed any fear. Although Jin Bing was majestic, they didn't feel that they were given for nothing. On the contrary, it aroused their morale even higher. Those who were gearing up wanted to compete with Jin Bing.

The battle drums of the upper and lower armies in Fuzhou City are rumbling, flags and flags are unfurled, and the army is slowly mobilized according to the orders. Groups of rushing cars, trench bridge cars, ladders, leading cars, and thunderbolt cars are pushed out of the golden army. The archers and the sword and shield hands followed closely behind, slowly approaching the walls of Fuzhou City, the atmosphere was already tense to the extreme.

Yang Zaixing didn't dare to be careless at all, his tiger eyes narrowed slightly, carefully observing the movements of the golden soldiers, and at the same time gave his instructions: "All gunners prepare, load the solid ammunition, target the enemy's Thunderbolt chariot, prepare!"

The gunners on the various artillery positions on the top of the city had already been ready for battle. After hearing the order, they immediately loaded the shells into the barrels, pushed the cannons to the battlements, and carefully aimed at the golden soldiers outside the city. The target was locked in the thunderbolt car formation in front of the golden soldier formation.

For today's big battle, the Fubo army has been preparing for many days. After several days of fierce battles, basically they did not use too many Thunder Cannons. Now it is finally time for the Thunder Cannons to show their power!
